Battle Looms Over Adjournment Bill in Ohio Senate
In Columbus Ohio March 25 AP lawmakers face a clash over adjourning sine die April 26 after quitting work April 15. The move would kill about 80 percent of the more than 1000 measures since Jan 4. Keir Lawrence urges the date to speed action on relief and a 88 400 000 biennial appropriation. Senators Byrne Myers warn hastening adjournment risks killing desirable legislation. If approved the relief and budget bills likely pass.
